*places my head in your lap* hey can you hold this for me? thanks *walks away, leaving my head in your lap*
I miss you. I am hurting—can't find a song loud enough.
I'm using this whenever someone asks me to tell them about myself.
Oh the conflict between wanting to tell you everything I want to say and wanting to sit with you in silence forever. Watching clouds.
Those who need it.
Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”
I say stuff here so I don't accidentally say it out loud.
Another scene that should be in stormlight archive book 5
There is a commotion outside the tower. Even though there are 10 days left. Both sides are going to be making moves.
Kaladin sees the early signs of conflict and is worried. Humans and singers are about to clash. They had been called to discuss a seize fire but on both sides there are those who bent on fighting.
Kaldin looses it. In a fit of cold rage he jumps into the sky.
"Windrunners!" He calls out. Tho he no longer A soldier. Every windrunner and squire joins him in the sky without question.
"There will be no more fighting" kaladin roars. His voice like the storms. Eyes ablaze with a tint of red.
"In 10 days the war will end. There are many among you who just want to life. You are free to join us. I and all of the windrunners will protect you. Humans or singer or anyone. And if you wish to fight we'll fight you too"
A regal flie out to attack kaladin but he finishes him swiftly.
Then slowly the murmmers die down.
Kaladin calms and gets back to the clinic like nothing happened.
Some time later kaladin is walking through the tower when we sees solders rushing forward. Some singers had accepted their offer to enter the tower till the war ends. Many had returned to alethkar.
He grunts as he goes to investigate. Queen is there surrounded by guards. Who are facing singers with spears who are defending somebody on the ground.
Moash.
Kaladin suppresses the surge of anger. Looking at his former, now blind friend. Surround by singers.
"The traitor needs to be punished for his crimes" navani says.
The singers object. These are the singers that kaladin had helped. They see him but say nothing. They are still bitter with him.
"We won't let you take him" the singers yell.
"He is a traitor and dangerous. We cannot let him roam free" snarls a solder.
"Leave him in our care. We will take full responsibility for him. He... he's our friend"
Kaldin is torn.
Just then an impatient solder rushes out to attack the singers. Before kaladin can interfere. The singer disarms the solder and subdues him on the floor.
A move that kaladin recognized. The same move moash used on kaladin when kaldin had tried to go after dunny.
Kaladin steps forward glowing which shuts everyone up before a fight can break out and asks, where the singer learned that move.
The singer answers that moash taught them. That he helped them and protected them when kaladin betrayed and left them so they wouldn't be helpless.
Everyone is silent before kaladin advises singers to keep a close eye on moash from now on and walks away while moash makes a snide remark but kaladin keeps walking.
